Miami is an explosive mix of eclectic cultures, unique experiences, and world-class entertainment, so when choosing a place to stay, you’re going to want an accommodation that matches the vibe.

Sure you can stay in a luxury resort right on the beach, or you can stay in a chain hotel with a rooftop pool deck and room service, but for a truly unique stay, you should consider boutique hotels in Miami.

South Beach, Miami

Boutique hotels are smaller and have personalised offerings, allowing for a more intimate experience for guests. They allow you to connect with the locals, get an immersive intro into the Miami way of life, and because this is Florida, you get some cool designs too.

The whole point of boutique hotels is to be different, and my favorite type of different is a cool vibe that are effortlessly hip. In this guide, we’ve hand picked our favorite boutique hotels that we think you’ll love – each with their own quirkiness, you’ll find each one of them charming!

Boutique Hotels in Miami

Diesel’s Pelican Hotel

Pelican Hotel Miami

Diesel’s Pelican Hotel on the famous Ocean Drive in South Beach couldn’t be a better fit for those wanting to be within a 15 minute drive downtown Miami and 4 minutes’ drive from Española Way, putting you within close proximity to the best of Miami nightlife.

A bit of an irreverent brand in the first place, Diesel’s packed each room full of the best of Florida-sourced kitsch and tchotchkes, creating a zany wonderland in each and every room.

If ever I’ve wanted to explore every single room in a hotel, this is it! The young at heart flock here for energizing design and affordable prices in one of South Beach’s most popular areas.

Kids are definitely welcome – there’s enough room (and personality) for everyone in the oceanfront suite rooms at this South Beach hotel.

The Marlin on Collins Avenue

The Marlin Miami

The Marlin on Collins Avenue is an audiophile’s paradise, drawing professional recording artists and amateurs to its private studios.

Even if you’re not looking to record a new track, The Marlin welcomes all into its laid-back arms.

It’s about modern, sleek details – details largely controlled by your in-room iPad – like your hidden 60 inch LED TV hidden in a large mirror or playing music from The Marlin’s own database on demand on your surround sound (and more).

I love the crisp white guest rooms punctuated by the Marlin’s bright paintings over the bed; it all pairs really well with the beautiful sky and vibrant life just outside your window.

Its amazing location on lively Collins Avenue makes me want to sip a fashionable drink at the bar and just watch the people go by.

Soho Beach House

Soho Beach House captures the exclusivity and the ideal cool for which Miami Beach is renowned.

Thanks to its Mid Beach location, it escapes a lot of the over-the-top everything that dominates South Beach.

It’s all about mingling here and Soho Beach House gives you plenty of places to go for it; I’m personally torn between the delicious delights of Cecconi’s, the in-house Italian restaurant open to the public, and the two pools.

Soho Beach House places a very high premium on privacy due to its status as a private club for media professionals, but this really allows you to unwind even more since you’re forced to leave your camera and phone in your room.

All you need to do to gain entrance to this sophisticated beachside playland is book a night in a (Caribbean-meets-the-1950’s) room. You won’t be disappointed.

The Goodtime Hotel
